We’ve all got numbers

Jimbo, Duncan Alexander, Adam Crafton and Dominic Fifield take in another frantic midweek of Champions League action and a tantalising Premier League weekend.

Man United rely on spirit, courage and Ronaldo again against Atalanta. But could Cristiano starting against Liverpool provide a problem for Solskjaer’s side?

Chelsea hammer Malmo but lose Lukaku and Werner to injury. Meanwhile Man City have got Foden, Palmer and also the Salford Silva.

Newcastle travel to Crystal Palace with the sub-plot of Parish and co versus the PIF. And Adam tells us about his report on the plight of Saudi LGBT+ people.

Plus unsuccessful loans and sentient fixture computers.
